One time those random additions on her part just so happened to be Ray Of Light and one or two other tracks from that album. Still rember this very fondly. |
No shame.
That was a good album and at the time, it was catchy as hell and all over the place. I believe that was the last Madonna album to really shake things up and be influential musically. I mean, no shit, Ray of Light helped ease the world into an acceptant state for electronic music, probably as much or more than other albums credited with such accomplishments — I’m being serious here.
Granted, most of that is due to William Orbit’s involvement with the project. I think he co-wrote and produced every single track.
But still... credit where credit is due. As a fan of electronic music, I appreciate this album and I am 100% guilty of buying it in 1997.
The next year Orbit would do almost the same thing with Blur for “13,” though obviously that is an infinitely better album.
Blah. I’m gonna listen to the title track right now
